Female sand
fleas are the most vicious (as in most cases
with real females) and more common as the
male sand fleas tend to die straight after
mating.
Sand fleas are really hard to see as they
are only 2-3mm long so you would not be
aware if they were lurking around the area
of beach you were sat on.
If you had been bitten by the sand flea the
first you would know about this would be by
noticing a small red lump on your body. The
sand flea attaches itself to a person and
then digs it way down deeper into the skin,
allowing it then to feed of the blood. |
